## Description
<section id="description"> Implemente un algoritmo (o más) para calcular la función <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamma function">Gamma</a> ($ \ Gamma $) (solo en el campo real). La función Gamma se puede definir como: <div style="padding-left: 4em;"> <big><big>$ \ Gamma (x) = \ displaystyle \ int_0 ^ \ infty t ^ {x-1} e ^ {- t} dt $</big></big> </div></section>

## Tests

```yml
tests:
  - text: <code>gamma</code> debe ser una función.
    testString: 'assert(typeof gamma=="function","<code>gamma</code> should be a function.")'
  - text: '<code>gamma(&quot;+tests[0]+&quot;)</code> debe devolver un número.'
    testString: 'assert(typeof gamma(tests[0])=="number","<code>gamma("+tests[0]+")</code> should return a number.")'
  - text: '<code>gamma(&quot;+tests[0]+&quot;)</code> debe devolver <code>&quot;+results[0]+&quot;</code> .'
    testString: 'assert.equal(gamma(tests[0]),results[0],"<code>gamma("+tests[0]+")</code> should return <code>"+results[0]+"</code>.")'
  - text: '<code>gamma(&quot;+tests[1]+&quot;)</code> debe devolver <code>&quot;+results[1]+&quot;</code> .'
    testString: 'assert.equal(gamma(tests[1]),results[1],"<code>gamma("+tests[1]+")</code> should return <code>"+results[1]+"</code>.")'
  - text: '<code>gamma(&quot;+tests[2]+&quot;)</code> debe devolver <code>&quot;+results[2]+&quot;</code> .'
    testString: 'assert.equal(gamma(tests[2]),results[2],"<code>gamma("+tests[2]+")</code> should return <code>"+results[2]+"</code>.")'
  - text: '<code>gamma(&quot;+tests[3]+&quot;)</code> debe devolver <code>&quot;+results[3]+&quot;</code> .'
    testString: 'assert.equal(gamma(tests[3]),results[3],"<code>gamma("+tests[3]+")</code> should return <code>"+results[3]+"</code>.")'

    testString: 'assert.equal(gamma(tests[4]),results[4],"<code>gamma("+tests[4]+")</code> should return <code>"+results[4]+"</code>.")'
